“Another reason to like Michele”

Yeah, I am coming around to that as well.

I think you are right, I talk to a lot of people who are surprised by this when I tell them.

My wife has been doing the same thing. It is shame we just can’t buy stuff we like that works though.

Most people know that this is an intrusion that shouldn’t be tolerated by a free people,

but many libs would support it,
and some would even deny that it’s happening.

Someone told me they told a lib acquaintance about the FDA’s $90,000 fine for selling $200 worth of rabbits, and the lib denied the truth of the incident. In his opinion, there’s no way that his beloved ruling class would do that to someone.

critics of the law claim CFLs contain toxic mercury

Following the logic presented here, supporters of the law deny CFLs contain toxic mercury. Right?

[Mind-numbed Robot]

We all know this is not about light bulbs. It is about additional government control over our lives. It is just another extension of then “No Smoking” laws.

One word--Talstar. I found it on eBay. It's banned in a bunch of lib states so I figured it must be good. It got rid of my ants and according to the studies I found on it (the active chemical is bifenthrin), it has a long residual life, stays in place indoors and out, and is very safe for mammals when used as directed. However, it's very toxic to aquatic life so be careful around ponds or streams.

Ortho Home Defense Max has bifenthrin as active ingredient -at .05%. Talstar is concentrated bifenthrin - so you have to dilute. Ortho product can be purchased in stores.

Thanks. I found the actual ant pile hidden sorta by the outside kitchen window. Hit it with triazicide granules and so far so good.

You’re right, Ortho does use that chemical. The concentrate is much cheaper, though, and I can make more for a lot less doing my own dilutions.

A lot of people need full spectrum light bulbs.
